Thursday 8/21

Are you kidding me? Some parents in California are upset over Pizza and Ice Cream party to reward children for reading achievements.

The Granada Hills, Calf. couple questions such rewards in light of rising childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes.

library officials say the responsibility falls on the parents, not a public institution, to decide whether their children should join in pizza and ice cream parties. A library spokesperson also said "It's been a tradition just about as long as there have been kids and as long as there has been ice cream."

I consider myself a healthy person, I continually watch what I eat however, a donut now and then is not going to kill me.
It's not what you do once in a while it's what you do all most often.

Your thoughts, should school and library parties for kids include only healthy foods and snacks?

PROFOUND SAYINGS:

six of one, half dozen of the other.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
It will all come out in the wash.
Looks like a duck, walk likes a duck then it must be a duck!

Can you come up with any others? Or make up new ones, like this.

If you think texting and driving is distracting, check out this dude. He watches movies on his Align LeftIphone while driving by placing his iPhone on his car's dashboard and watches the reflection on the windshield. He wears a headset while he watches, but usually with just one ear bud inserted "so that I can hear the traffic and what not." At least he's cautious...check out the video!

Give me a break! The children are supposed to be rewarded for good behavior, or in this case reading. What is wrong with rewarding them with pizza and ice cream? They're not giving them pizza and ice cream EVERY day, just once, one special occassion...go figure these people are from California...

These are most likely the same idiots picketing farmers for putting pesticides on fruits. Do they intend on growing organic fruit for all of these children?
